In owning my own little family member (dachshund) over these past 7 years, along with recently graduating with an Animal Ecology major, I have a passion for understanding the needs, wants, and natural behaviors of all animals. I make sure that they are comfortable, well fed, active, and truly treated like family. I love to take them for long walks, make sure they maintain good hygiene, have ample space to play and have many forms of enrichment to stimulate their natural behaviors (like hunting, swimming, digging, herding or guarding). Fortunately, I am currently taking online master's courses so I am available 24/7 for whatever you have in mind for your pet. I pay close attention to detail and am very patient with all domestic species.
